To register its second-biggest win in T20Is, India thumps England by 150 runs
India delivered a commanding performance in the fifth T20I against England, winning by 150 runs at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. This victory marked India’s second-largest win by runs in T20I history, following their 168-run triumph over New Zealand in 2023.
After winning the toss and opting to bat, India posted an impressive total of 247 for nine, driven by a sensational century from Abhishek Sharma, who scored 135 runs off just 54 balls. His explosive innings set the tone for the match, leaving England with a daunting target of 248.
In response, England started well but quickly fell apart, suffering a dramatic middle-order collapse. They went from 62 without loss to 67 for three, struggling against India’s spin attack. Despite Harry Brook’s effort of 51 runs, England was ultimately bowled out for just 97 in 10.3 overs.
The match showcased India’s dominance throughout the series, securing a 4-1 victory overall. With this win, India heads into the upcoming ODI series with confidence, while England will look to regroup after a disappointing tour.
